Accounting for Landlords

for Property owners is a necessary yet challenging task.  The level of accounting for landlords or property owners that is needed is often minimal and often with these investments being passive investments the time available by the owner is minimal.  The time that can be needed to stay ahead of this administration can be significant however, and in the past, given the lack of tools to simplify this task, has been a manual and tedious task. Enter Xero.  With Xero you can take advantage of cloud accounting technology to simplify and automate your administrative tasks and have always up-to-date information on your portfolio.
